Rabbids return to the Nintendo 3DS with Rabbids Rumble

Those wacky Rabbids are back, and this time they are invading the Nintendo 3DS in Rabbids Rumble, an action packed mini-game battle extravaganza. The game looks to make sure of almost all of the 3DS’s various bells and whistles, and Ubisoft will surely use them all in some unique and rabbidy ways.

Take a look at the first selection of screens and art, and the announcement.

Rabbids Rumble is scheduled for a November 2012 release.

Today, Ubisoft announced the development of Rabbids Rumble exclusively for the Nintendo 3DS system. Rabbids have infiltrated the handheld console and will be back to wreaking havoc around every corner in November 2012.

The wacky Rabbids have been let loose throughout seven different worlds and players must battle it out in-game to capture over 100 delirious Rabbids and complete their collection. Rabbids Rumble is full of interactive mini-games that fully utilize the Nintendo 3DS hardware, most notably with 3D and Augmented Rabbidity, where players will interact with the Rabbids like never before. This new experience causes Rabbids to surge from the floor, fly around and even battle it out atop the kitchen table. Rabbids Rumble also features multiple game modes including the solo campaign and multiplayer battles.

For the first time in franchise history, Rabbids Rumble will introduce an accessible and hilarious turn-based combat system. Players will be able to challenge their friends in intense and zany battles, mixing tactics with the Rabbids’ classic wackiness. Each Rabbid comes prepared with unique combat abilities and can be trained to become stronger for battles. Using the StreetPass function, new and rare Rabbids will be available to download to enrich each fan’s collection. Fans can also use StreetPass to share scores, gain training bonuses and compete in battles to unlock new Rabbids and items.
